About This Call

Olmsted County's Transforming Trash Artist-in-Residence program invites artists to create public artworks using at least 90% reclaimed materials from the County Recycling Center and Landfill. Two artists will be selected for one-month residencies in 2026. Each artist will receive a $2,500 stipend, lodging, studio space, tools, and supplemental materials.

Artists will design and install a public-facing project, participate in one unveiling event, and lead at least one community engagement activity. This residency promotes sustainability, creative reuse, and environmental education while tracking the impact of waste diversion. The program is open to international artists working in Craft/Traditional Arts, Photography, Drawing, Film/Video/New Media, Mixed-Media/Multi-Discipline, Painting, and Sculpture.
